Automations

We perform record review for the assets we have in our base, around 300 days after the last review date was entered for the asset. These assets are in the LMS Content table, which has linked records back to the Assets table.Rather than have the reviewer go to the the Assets table to update those linked records, I’d like to automate it so some of the linked records get updated with the same new date value.In the Assets table, there are linked records back to the LMS Content table, here I want to update some of those records based on a condition.Here’s a bit more about the desired workflow:I want to update linked records when a value in the Last Review Date field of the LMS Content table cha

Hi there!Quick question: If a recipient of an automated email from Airtable (sent by Airtable mail server) clicks on the "unsubscribe" link, will his/her email address be "blacklisted" for all automated emails from that Airtable base or is this specific to the automation which has executed the "send email" step?Cheers!

Hi all,I am trying to add info from a linked table (one to many relation) in the body of an e-mail in an automated action.This is my setup:TableA with Fields Name, Age, Status, Email, ...TableB is a collection of dates on which the person in TableA is expected. Fields: Name (from Table A), date, type of meeting)One record in tableA can have multiple lines in TableB.Now I want to be able to send an automated mail that contains the info from TableB (date and linked type of meeting).Is this somehow possible? If yes, can someone please help me how to solve this?Thanks in advance.Kind regards,Kenneth De Vos

I already have an automation using a webhook, that when I add a new record in a certain table, a sign request is created and sent to the relevant email address. What I need to do now is after the document is signed by the recipients, save it as an attachment on the same record.Any idea how it can be done?

Greetings allI have various stock lists from my suppliers all in their own various PDF / CSV format.Each suppliers stock list has its own Product SKU Description.Some suppliers have one document for 'stock' (i.e. quantity), one document for price list (price per product SKU), and one document for 'Special Pricing' (an override of the standard price list).I want to map each suppliers stock and pricing to my unique Product SKU so I can then show the total stock I have available to sell to my customer network and filter the lowest pricing between my suppliers etc. Any suggestions welcome...Thank you!

I could use some help correctly setting up a multiple select field that monitors changes in other fields. For context, this'll be setup for internal use mostly for billing purposes. Once the tagged change(s) in the multiple select field have been resolved, they'll be manually cleared. Scenario: I have a multiple select field called Changelog that monitors changes in other fields in the same table- Contribution Status, Contribution Amount, and Current Donation. Any change in a record associated in a specified group should have their respected outputs reflected in the Changelog field. Issue: I want the Changelog field to populate any and all changes. Sometimes the output looks accurate, other times it does not. In the example screenshots, I changed a record's Contribution Status which resulted in changes to both the Contribution Status and Contribution Amount- correctly reflected in the changelog. However, when making this

Good day team,I currently have a table wherein we have an auto number field as well as an attachment field or excel sheet with our clients personal data. Then the data on the excel template will then be manually transferred to another table. Is there a way or an automation that could also captured the correct auto number field and be seen as well on the other table based on the subjects in the file? For Example:Subject 1 - 1234Subject 2 - 1234Subject 3 - 1235 Thanks

I'm going based on this: https://airtable.com/developers/web/api/create-commentThe authorization is fine, but for some reason within scripting it keeps giving the error that the body isn't parsable. My script is as follows:    //Variables let inputConfig = input.config(); let recordID = inputConfig.recordID; let commentContent = "Hello World"; let url = 'https://api.airtable.com/v0/appksePpf16d6MPdp/tbl4ZEftsWgo84Ldu/' + recordID + '/comments'; console.log(commentContent); //Create the Comment let response = await fetch(url, { method: 'POST', headers: { 'Authorization': 'Bearer [private]', 'Content-Type': 'application/json', }, body: { //For some reason, it's not accepting this body 'text': commentContent } }); console.log(await response.text()); //console.log(await response.json());  &n

Many departments in my workplace heavily rely on automations. Towards the end of month, we sometimes reach a limit of around 30,000 and it's a hassle linking records manually.Earlier I just changed a filter and triggered 17,000 automation runs before I could disable the bad automation, which sends emails when a record is created in a synced view.... It's only the beginning of the month. I'm stressing out. I had optimized and sacrificed many automations; I undid all that work in an instant.What should I do to prevent automations from entirely stopping in two weeks?

I have a simple automation set up to send an email when a record is updated. The email includes a link to a Google doc for that particular record. The automation works most of the time, but I've run into situations where the URL for the Google Doc in Airtable gets modified when it comes through in email. For some reason, the underscores in the link get removed. See arrows in attached screenshot. The top URL is the correct one in Airtable, the bottom URL is what comes through in the email. I have other records in Airtable that also have underscores in the google doc URL and those comes through fine. It just seems to be random docs that this is happening with.Any ideas how to fix? 

I am working with make + airtable but when i try to write the date + time in my airtable with the data from make the date applies correctly but not the hour. It always insert 00:00 time. What is wrong here? thanks in advance. 

Hi,I add a grid in my email automation.when I insert the grid I want the grid to be Right to left.right now its left to right like here:is it possible to make it Right to left so the supplier will be on the right side?Thanks. 

hello - i created a button field that triggers an email via sendgrid integration. while this functionality is possible as a creator/internal user, it is not possible (i.e., button not clickable) when a shared view is generated and viewed as a non-internal user. is there a way to allow non-internal users who view the shared view to click the button to generate the email?

I have three tables - deals, project, and a join table that connects deals and project. The deals table is connected to the project table through a linked field, creating a 1:1 relationship. I am trying to link the join table to the project table based on the linked field in the deals table. I am using the Airtable ID for the linked record from the deals table and inputting it into the "link to project" field in the join table, but I am encountering an error."Error: Field "fldxxxxxxxxx" cannot accept the provided value: invalid item in array cell: foreign record is invalid: foreignTableId is incorrect."I'm getting the correct id for projectID field as I've double checked but still it is not getting linked to the "Link to projects" field. Please do let me know if more detail is required or if anyone has any solution to this?

Hi folks. I’m trying to create a way to allow a member of our team to edit a shared view, and I’ve reached a snag. Here’s what I’ve done so far: Created a synced table in a new database using the data from the shared view Added 3 new columns in the new table for adding information to individual records Created an automation in the new table that makes a new row in a google sheet every time a particular column meets a condition All that works. And here’s where I’m snagged: Creating an automation in the original database that updates the changed record whenever a new row is added to the google sheet - BUT: When I use the Record ID from the new synced table, it doesn’t match the Record ID of the original table, so I get a “record doesn’t exist” error When I use one of the other field values from the new google sheet row to identify the record, I get an “Received invalid inputs” error

I have an automation that emails a list of people every time a record is created and within that email is a formula field that concatenates a date with several other fields but the problem is in all the emails the date and time is always 7 hours ahead. How do I make it so it sends only in pacific standard time? 

I have created automation when the condition matches  and assigned to person "A" then it should email person "A"In the same automation, I would like to add another condition whereas if assigned person is "B" then it should email person "B" only. How can I add multiple action in one automation whereas based on each action the email goes to a different person.  Please see attached screenshot.  

I am currently on the team free trial plan do I need the business plan to email non-collabaorators? I am trying to email every person I have on a table with the same email is there a way to bypass this through other services?

Hello,I have three columns with multiple select options: Lecture (Mandatory), Lecture (Required), and Lecture (Optional). I want to automate the process so that if I add a new value to Lecture (Mandatory), it automatically gets added to the other two columns.For example, if "English Lecture" is added manually to Lecture (Mandatory), then "English Lecture" should also be added to the multiple select options of Lecture (Required) and Lecture (Optional). How can i do that using automation I have make some small automation but it is not workingSet the Trigger:Choose the trigger "When record matches conditions."Set the condition to monitor the "Lecture (Mandatory)" field for updates.       let table = base.getTable("Your Table Name"); let recordId = input.config().recordId; // Fetch the record that triggered the automation let record = a

Table A (Names) has a lookup field in Table B (Clubs).  I would like a field in Table B that lists all records from Table A that  looked up that particular record (club) in Table B.   In other words, I would like a field in Table B that shows all the names for a particular club.  How do I do this?

My team has several hundred user profiles with personal information stored in a database with no API. We keep the personal info there, but we have an SFTP to upload CSVs for information regarding statuses and due dates on various per-profile tasks. Those CSVs land in Airtable, where I'm working to create interfaces that are a lot more user friendly than the database. The really unfortunate thing is, I need a way to track any status or date changes we make in Airtable in order for teammates to manually update that data in the database. At any one time, there will be three "truths": what the old upload previously said, what the teammate has changed it to, and what the new upload says. (I should note, the new upload will probably overwrite the old upload? I'm not sure, I haven't set it up yet as I'm designing the base with fake data.)I can't wrap my head around the best way to do this. I could:1. Have user status/date changes change the last uploaded data, but

Hello,I am trying to set up an automation that sends an email when a record is updated, but only if it is updated via our Mini Extensions add on.We ask people to submit via an Airtable form with information that is TBC, and when the record is created, we can ask people to update anything via Mini Extensions so that they don't have to log in or have an Airtable account.It would be great to know when someone has updated the record through the Mini Extensions form, as currently I can only set up an automation when a record is changed at all - this would be inappropriate as we are updating the records ourselves all the time.The condition options in automations for 'send an email > when a record is updated > if conditions are met' do not have the condition I am hoping for; any advice appreciated.Cheers

Hello. I am trying to send Gmail attachments I receive automatically to an attachments column in Airtable. I finally realized that Airtable wants the URL in array form, which I can do. However, I have not figured out how to use the array functions toArray, map, or add to append the files instead of overwriting and keeping the last one. I have searched and read numerous posts in both the Make and Airtable communities. This is my most recent attempt at make.com.My ultimate goal is to allow students to email their attachments and have them appear in the portal I built with Softr.I feel like I am so close. Thank you.
